Xueli enjoys modeling, meeting new people and practicing English. She wants to make it clear to people that albinism is not a curse, but just a genetic feature. And also Show the world that beauty is different. It cannot be put into a certain standard. I want other children with albinism or any other condition to know that they can do anything and be anything.
